  1. How do you know misrep was cleared? Did USCIS tell you this is writing?
  2. There are free alternatives out there, so you don't have to pay any service. Even if you see progress of your case, no service can give you accurate estimate as to how long your case will take to get adjudicated, not even MyProgress on USCIS website itself. Where Visa Journey monthly threads shine is detail. Case trackers only give you dry statistics, but VJ users also share their personal experiences, specifics of their case and immigration history which often affects how quickly cases get processed. Good luck!
  3. I'd imagine you need a passport to enter foreign destinations or fly to cruise departure point? I'd think passport name is what you need to use. Then bring GC and marriage certificate to prove your name change.
  4. All children, in our out of wedlock should be listed.
  5. Adjustment of status doesn't apply for beneficiaries outside the US. They're consular processing
  6. Sadly it's normal timeline for I-90 nowadays
  7. Payment method doesn't relate to where you ship packet. Only depends on postal service you use. I'm avoiding question about address / details of money order because I never used it in my immigration process and cannot tell how to fill it. Only used personal checks all the way.
  8. Another thing to think about is time to green card. Whenever K-1 vs CR-1 speed is compared, folks often compare time until entry to the US. And with that, K-1 is about the same or a bit faster. But if you compare time to green card, CR-1 is typically faster overall.
  9. Yes, you should tell them if it was a moving violation. You can prepare an errata sheet and give it to officer before the interview. Errata sheet is literally a table with Section Number, Question Number, Current answer, Corrected answer. Be upfront with officer about it. Good luck!
  10. No, if you send packet with UPS, send to the correct address as listed on USCIS website. Different postal services have different addresses for a reason. If you sent UPS to USPS address on USCIS website, your packet will get rejected.
  11. If you have good evidence and prepared for the interview, there's nothing to worry about.
  12. Upload that letter and copy of I-751 receipt in PDF format in additional evidence section of N-400 as you file it No. Small correction: your immigrant husband isn't beneficiary. Forms I-751 and N-400 belong to him, you're not petitioning him anymore. That ship has sailed after I-130 and I-864. He's the one applying for naturalization, and should be filling his forms and know all the answers by heart for his interview. Why isn't he the one asking these questions on Visa Journey?
  13. Anything that proves bonafide marriage. Joint lease, joint bank account statements, trips together, W-2 filed together, family phone plans, photos together with friends and family, health / car / homeowners / life insurance listing both names, birth certificates of children together, joint Costco membership, affidavits, utilities listing both names, mortgage statements showing both names, loans in both names. The list goes on.
  14. This is usual flow of things at USCIS. First, they approve 10-20% of freshly filed cases, giving everybody excitement about quick processing times. Then they leave the rest of cases and go back to work on cases filed a while ago. At least, this is my observation.
  15. 7 years is long for a young person, but not long for DOS. They sometimes uncover things that happened 27 years ago. You need to know the outcome of that application for your benefit.
  16. I agree, following up is important. I believe there's a question on DS-160 whether you were ever denied visa to the US before. OP would need to know the answer. Making answer up without knowing what happened may cause misrep accusation and another denial.
  17. Disclose and provide anything you can provide. You shouldn't be penalized for this. It's the fact you got citation because you missed timely payment that may require listing, not the offence itself. I'm not a lawyer and this is not a legal advice. But as the form says, you can get denial / misrep accusation if USCIS thinks you should have listed and you didn't. Most likely, if you list it, officer will briefly ask what happened and move on with interview.
  18. Yes, many people experienced sudden delays / shift of priorities with USCIS. My I-751 was estimated to be 7 months, but took 20.5 months. USCIS also skipped block of cases where my case was, and processed other newer ones. A friend who filed I-751 two weeks after me got processed 5-6 faster than me or cases in my block. It happens. Nobody knows for sure why USCIS shifts priorities. It's a black mystery box.
  19. If you can't skip it, pick yes or no and explain during interview.
  20. Listing red camera incident should not be a problem. Not listing it may be a problem, given you got fine and citation etc. I'd list it.
  21. Up to you, you can apply for N-400 if eligible. Decision on N-400 will depend on outcome of I-751.
  22. Good luck! Some lucky people receive 10 year GC very quickly, in 3-5 months. Majority have to wait for 1.5 - 3 years
